WhiteGTI:
Can you run both computers on your wireless network and just transfer the files wirelessly into the shared folders?

Yep could do that. Do I need to go thought all my work and change the format of them to be compatible with iWork or will they automatically do that?

....Not really a failsafe connection. Better to use fastest Firewire cable protocol you have.

For future you will also need a nice big external hard drive for Time Machine to automatically back up to. This will also make any future migrations much easier.

For total (well nearly) erasure use the zero overwrite method. Will be slow according to quantity to erase.

Cheers RR.
Im just installing iWork. Do you know if I will have to change the file type before I move the documents to my iMac? Or will it automatically be compatible?  :happy2:

EDIT - It does it automatically.  :pomppomp:

Google 'DOD erase'.

I'd have bought a Macbook and a big feck off monitor personally - best of both worlds.
